I'm applying for another minor art's scholarship that sounds really neat for what it is. In fact, any high school artist around San Diego/LA should probably check into this: http://musiccenter.org/education/spot_visual.html

Only one pieces is required to be sent in; initially a jpeg. If you make it past the preliminary round, you bring your original piece along with other artworks to be reviewed by artsy museum owners in LA. Anyone who makes it past the preliminary round gets their artwork displayed in some gallery and you earn 250 dollars to an art class of your choice. Grand prize earns a 5,000 dollar scholarship. It's a pretty easy thing to apply for, especially since it can be done online-- I really encourage all who read to take part in it.

I need some of your help though; I've narrowed all the directionless art down to what I think is the most presentable, but I need opinions as to what you think is the strongest. It's reviewed really generally under:• Artistic choices• Skill and execution• Originality/Creativity

I met Tyler's brother this weekend. He's just like Tyler, except he's 27 and has tatoo's. It's really cool. He says I look like Wes Anderson. That's my only complaint.

This is Wes Anderson.

This is me.

Wes Anderson has never played an accordion. His older brother remains incorrect like Tyler.

But,I realized eating dinner with Tyler's family/friends, your relationships with people play out in a much more natural way when you're older. This is the part where I rant about how shallow high school is. (I won't really.)
